The study of complex adaptive systems, a subset of nonlinear dynamical systems, [6] is an interdisciplinary matter that attempts to blend insights from the natural and social sciences to develop system-level models and insights that allow for heterogeneous agents, phase transition, and emergent behavior.
This conference on "The Mind, the Brain, and Complex Adaptive Systems" brought together an unusual group of scientists including two Nobel laureates (Murray Gell-Mann and Herbert A. Simon) and produced new approaches to this frontier in addition to a book published by SFI. [1]
The institute's main gate. The Santa Fe Institute (SFI) is an independent, nonprofit theoretical research institute located in Santa Fe, New Mexico, United States and dedicated to the multidisciplinary study of the fundamental principles of complex adaptive systems, including physical, computational, biological, and social systems.
Recent work on the Modeling and simulation of Complex Adaptive Systems has demonstrated the need for combining agent-based and complex network based models. [21] [22] [23] describe a framework consisting of four levels of developing models of complex adaptive systems described using several example multidisciplinary case studies:
Complex adaptive systems are special cases of complex systems that are adaptive in that they have the capacity to change and learn from experience. [8] Examples of complex adaptive systems include the international trade markets, social insect and ant colonies, the biosphere and the ecosystem, the brain and the immune system, the cell and the developing embryo, cities, manufacturing businesses ...
"Complex systems are, by any other definition, learning organizations." [18] Complexity Theory, KM, and OL are all complementary and co-dependent. [18] “KM and OL each lack a theory of how cognition happens in human social systems – complexity theory offers this missing piece”. [18]
Complexity is a peer-reviewed open-access scientific journal covering the field of complex adaptive systems. The journal's scope includes Chaos theory, genetic algorithms, cellular automata, neural networks, evolutionary game theory, and econophysics. It was established in 1995 and is published by John Wiley & Sons. [1]
